Sheila Bair Is on Your Side
By Robert Scheer

June 10, 2009


Bair is the Republican whom President Obama reappointed to head the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, but she is protecting the interest of taxpayers as no Democrat has in this administration, and she needs your support. Huge financial decisions are being made by this government, involving trillions in future obligations of US taxpayers, and Bair has been a rare effective voice for the interests of ordinary folk.

Once an aide to then-Sen. Robert Dole (R-Kan.), Bair was appointed by the first President Bush to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and reappointed by President Clinton. Later she was named head of the FDIC by President George W. Bush. Throughout her public service she has proved to be a vigilant protector of consumer interests.
